Con­fer­ence Theme

The con­ven­tion aims to pro­vide an oppor­tu­nity for account­ing schol­ars from Cen­tral and East­ern Europe to present and share their research with other schol­ars and account­ing pol­icy mak­ers through­out the region. The con­ven­tion com­prises a main con­fer­ence with par­al­lel ses­sions that include paper pre­sen­ta­tions, panel dis­cus­sions on inter­na­tional account­ing issues, and keynote presentations.

The con­ven­tion also includes two impor­tant devel­op­men­tal activ­i­ties, includ­ing a doc­toral course in advance of the main con­fer­ence, and a doc­toral col­lo­quium, at which selected stu­dents will have an oppor­tu­nity to present their work. The hosted events will be orga­nized in order to enhance dis­cus­sions on par­tic­u­lar top­ics of inter­est for the par­tic­i­pants. Fur­ther details con­cern­ing the events being com­prised within the con­ven­tion are to be announced. Spe­cial atten­tion will also be given to offer­ing doc­toral stu­dents and young researchers feed­back on their work.
